description The design of a foreign (Russian) language textbook for adult beginners presents a challenge both in terms of method selection and the selection of elements within its macrostructure, primarily the texts, as well as exercises and the choice and design of illustrative materials, which are crucial for the textbook efficacy. The concept of a foreign language textbook for adults should be based on the communicative approach, which involves equal mastery of all manifestations of functional, pragmatic, and linguistic competences. The topics covered in the textbooks are specified by the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages for each level individually, but their presentation should be adapted to the age of the target learners, which is rather broad – from students to senior citizens. Special attention should be paid to the selection and presentation of linguistic-cultural features, whose minimum is not predetermined and which needs to be defined along with the necessary comparison of cultures, either overt or covert. Therefore, along with the aforementioned definition of the linguistic-cultural minimum for A1 level, the paper will also present the theoretical and methodological premises, as well as the application of necessary methods and procedures within the possible structural solutions for overcoming difficulties in creating such a textbook.
